Making API Calls

Making API calls is easy. The Fastway API is based on HTTP GET and POST requests. All you need to do is figure out the URL, and call it via one of those methods.

Note: Internally, the API treats the requests as the same (you can achieve the same result with either type). However, GET requests are limited by the
maximum allowed query string length, so POST requests should be used if you are sending a larger amount of data.

The default response type is JSON. We recommend the use of browser extensions such as
JSONView (Firefox) or
registry hacks (IE)
to get JSON to display in the browser without the browser attempting to download it. Chrome already shows json content in the browser, so Chrome users wont have to do anything.
